[quote=EconProf]Concho, you have voiced a common misconception. Unemployed simply means not working and actively seeking work.
That could be someone entering the work force for the first time, coming out of retirement to seek work, laid off, fired, etc. They may or may not be getting unemployent benefits, and in fact only about 40% of the unemployed currently receive benefits.[/quote]
Thank you for your input EconProf. You answered a lot of the questions I had regarding the number they throw at us.

My point is simply that US numbers are completely out of whack creating a false sense of security in this country. I truly believe that unemployment is already over 11% nationally, but that this government is doing everything in their power to have us think otherwise. It is simple math. Not many think outside the box, they just watch the news.

I completely agree.

Someone told me they changed the way we look at unemployment during the Clinton years. Can anyone confirm this?
